I have posted twice in the last two days and have gotten negative, nasty disrespectful comments! I thought these boards were for moms to simply vent, ask for advice but I have learned from the past comments that I have received that some of you moms only know how to be disrespectful. Just know I will not stop posting and I will not change my screen name! May god continue to bless you positive and negative moms

These boards aren't what you seem to think. Most people here are pretty honest, and don't sugar coat things. If you don't want to hear something that you may not agree with, don't bother posting. I've been told a couple times to get my big girl panties on and grow up, but you don't see me holding a grudge.
The name thing honestly was kind of funny. It was a joke. Have a sense of humor or you're never going to make it with kids.
Just warning you now... This post is going to blow up with some not so nice comments.
Seriously try not to let the snark get to you. Most of the ladies on TB guinuinly give good, helpful advice, and actually especially the one's who sometimes seem bitchy. I got a little irritated at first too, but no one is hateful, and it's nothing you can't just brush off. Try to enjoy

That's the only place I feel I can be winy with no one judging me even if they gave me some rude comments am still happy they gave me some time and attention for a comment yep,,,,,
If you don't write overly stupid things, respect that you're inviting everyone's opinions (whether you happen like them or not) and be respectful to others you should get on just fine
And before that you had many other threads you created, asking tons of questions, where pretty much everyone was kind and supportive to you with their replies. I see 21 of these in your posting history within your profile. But now that these same people disagree with you, they are disrespectful?
I think it's more disrespectful to use this board as your personal venting platform without contributing to it in any way, such as replying to threads that are other than your own.
Grow up.

This is probably the most important advice you've received here. Aside from your DD (which is why people didn't give you serious respones in your last post), why would you presume to come to an established community, ask for its help over and over, then post something rude like this when you don't like people dishing it back to you? Makes no logical sense.

We all post here and ask for honesty. So that's what we get.
Don't let the door hit you in the vagina on the way out!

Oh dear lord. You posted that you were going to plan your own shower. People gave you good advice that it was a bad idea. Then you deleted the post, wasting everyone's time who answered you. Then you start something about not wanting similar names for twins and put the names you want as arm and armi or something (I'm sorry I know that's not the real names but I'm not going to waste my time checking the real ones). Like for real? This all seems like common sense to me which makes me wonder if you are just MUD.
1. Planning your own shower is RUDE RUDE RUDE
2. Arm and armi sound exactly the same
There's your advice. Now go to BabyGaga.com and enjoy some butterflies and rainbows and puppies.
1. You posted a dumb question. People say there's no such thing. Horseshit. Asking if it's okay to host your own baby shower (in textspeak) and expecting only responses that agree with you - that's a dumb question.
2. After you got a lot of serious responses, you said, "Whatever, whatever, I do what I want." To which you got flamed because people were POd that you wasted their time asking a question if you weren't even going to consider the responses. That's rude.
3. Because people were irritated because YOU were rude to THEM, you call everyone on the board out for being 'disrespectful'? We know what respect is - and you don't deserve any of it based on that post!
Perhaps you need to GBCB and hop over to a different forum where there are etiquette fax-pas galore to make you feel better. I hear the Knot is good about that.
